Trash the Trash…but don’t Waste the Waste!!

Did you know that half of the refuse people generate is actually trash, and the rest is recyclable waste? In fact, the State of California believes so strongly that people can recycle half of their refuse that it has mandated that all municipalities divert 50% of their refuse from the landfills or face stiff penalties.

When you don’t recycle green waste and other recyclable items, landfills fill up quickly and new ones have to be built, adversely affecting the environment and increasing costs of waste disposal. When you do recycle, waste disposal costs are more manageable, landfills have capacity, and the world you live in is a cleaner, healthier place to live.

If you are a home owner or renter, contact Burrtec at (909) 949-0500 in order to initiate free recycling service (blue container). If you are a business or manage a dwelling complex, contact Burrtec to initiate free recycling services (white bin). Have your users place recyclables in your white recycling bin, and have your landscaper haul your green waste to a grass recycler.
